Do you have a passion for wine?

Do you want to meet others with that same passion?

If yes was the answer to either of these questions then the Virginia Wine Expo, held at the Greater Richmond Convention Center, will be an event you cannot miss.

From February 19th through the 24th the Virginia Wine Board will be benefiting the Feed More organization, which is a hunger relief organization that works with the Virginia Food Bank, Meals on Wheels and the Community Kitchen.

The Walk-Around Grand Tasting, on Saturday, February 23rd, seems to be the most anticipated event of the weekend.

The tasting event gives patrons an unique opportunity to walk around and sample different quality wines found throughout Virginia. Doors open for the grand tasting at 11am and online tickets are $36.00.

The James City County Police Department and the Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) will be collecting expired, and potentially dangerous, unwanted prescription drugs. This event will be held on April 28, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the James City/Williamsburg Community Center.

This initiative provides an opportunity to the public to release controlled substances and other medications. This also lessens the chance for an individual to become addicted to these medications. For any questions regarding this program, contact Sgt. Humphries with the James City Council Police Department at 757-603-6022 or visit the website.

It’s estimated that more than 10 million people are victims of identity theft every year, and one of the most successful ways to prevent identity theft is to shred documents that contain personal information.

But, did you know you can fight identity theft while helping children this holiday season?

Come join the James City County Police Department Saturday, Oct. 29 between 9:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m. at Towne Bank for their first-ever 'Shred-A-Thon' event.
